Reflection Questions

Using cardboard and iMovie, I created cardboard armor with a shield and sword. We also made a short video which is supposed to be a movie commercial. We made this because we wanted to make something out of cardboard and make a video with it.

A challenge I overcame during this project was figuring out how to put all the videos with backgrounds together. I was able to do it by having Aiden put them together and I edited it. Doing this solved the problem and the challenge was them overcame.

During this process, I learned how to create a dome shaped out of cardboard. I learned this by not knowing how to make the top of the helmet and problem-solving. To do this I took a more flexible piece of cardboard and cut it into two strips then taped it on the helmet base and added cardboard to the top. I then taped it down and it worked.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change the group I worked with. The reason I would change this is because the people in my group wouldn't work somedays and when I told them we need to start working they would just kind of ignore me.

The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Innovative Designer because I generated ideas and edited them then tested out my ideas.
